Hot
The daylilies today are the yellow, Heirloom Lace, and the very tall, Challenger.
It reached 100 degrees again today. They are predicting even hotter later in the week. I should be used to the heat. Most summers are brutally hot here, but I always feel that it is just isn't right for it to get this hot. The garden certainly suffers when the temperatures are so high. I try to grow flowers that can take the heat, but too many days of this will take a toll. I'm hoping for a big rain that will surprise the weathermen and moderate the temperatures before the garden turns to toast. Right now the garden looks surprising good for the middle of summer. I hope I can say that in a couple weeks.

Down here in Texas, I am doing my best to maintain what I've got. It is almost essential to plant native, drought tolerant flowers if I expect to have anything last through August & September. Much luck to you on the rain and send some my way if you get it!
try Meister Eckhart
equally as interesting
It certainly has been toasty - my sprinklers are now on twice a week. :sunny:
